SImply genious . That appears to be the issue, but I haven't a clue how to fix 
it, as it appears to be a formatting error. 

Here's what the cfg file shows: 

# Mail Server Downtime 
define timeperiod{ 
timeperiod_name MailServ 
alias Monitored 24x7 Except During A Backup 
sunday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
monday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
tuesday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
wednesday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
thursday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
friday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
saturday 00:00-02:45,03:30-24:00 
} 


And here's what's given with the method you described: 

MailServ        Monitored 24x7 Except During A Backup   
        sunday  03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

        monday  03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

        tuesday         03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

        wednesday       03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

        thursday        03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

        friday  03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 

        saturday        03:30:00 - 24:00:00, 00:00:00 - 02:45:00 
Is the formatting an issue? 

define host{ 
use generic-host 
host_name Mail 
alias Mail_Server 
address 10.0.0.10 
check_command check-host-alive 
max_check_attempts 10 
notification_interval 10 
notification_period MailServ 
notification_options d,u,r 
}

Periods 

It sounds like the check_time_period of your checks is not being set to what 
you think it is. 


I suggest that you use config.cgi (View Config in the sidebar menu) to check 
what Nagios is actually using as the running configuration. Go to Services, 
check the Check Period value. Then go to Time Periods and verify what the 
definition of that Check Period alias is ("never" is not a magic word, it is 
just an alias so it could conceivably be something else than never).

I'm having an issue with Nagios sending me notifications during time periods 
that are not included within the designated period. I've tested this by setting 
the time period to 'never', restarting Nagios and I STILL get notifications. 

I have a backup that runs on my Mail Server 3-4 times a week. In order to do 
the backup process, I have to down my mail server. So you can imagine that I'm 
getting dozens of emails at very early times in the morning. Any ideas?
